About Nancy White

Disproved Relationships

Some researchers believe Nancy married Joseph Hanks, son of William. Some believe Nancy and Joseph were the parents of Nancy Hanks, mother of Abraham Lincoln. Other researchers believe Nancy's sister Lucy and James Hanks are the parents of Nancy Hanks.

This was resolved by 2016 MT DNA studies showing there is no blood link between Shipleys and Lincoln’s.
